Happy Birthday George Harrison

 

Known as the “Quiet Beatle”

A description so untrue

A musician, singer and songwriter

All the best included you

 

Lennon & McCartney

There in the spotlight

You and Ringo played your part

In the backlight

 

With all due respect

To The Beatles as a whole

To you George I admire the most

Playing lead guitar, you paid the toll

 

So many songs from my youth

Thanks to The Beatles I grew up

Teaching me about love

From a child to grown-up

 

But it’s your songs George

That pulls on me most

Was it your lyrics or guitar?

Finding me so engrossed

 

Heaven is now your home

There with your Sweet Lord

February 25, 1943 you were born

And 81 years later, you’re still adored

 

Happy Birthday George

My idol in Heaven you stand

Of so many who look up to you

I’m one thankful fan
